After Relegation, Leicester Names Iheanacho Best Player Of The Season
Nigerian forward, Kelechi Iheanacho has been named Leicester City’s player of the season.
Iheanacho only started 13 games in all competitions this term, but still contributed a combined 13 goals and assists.
The 26-year-old became the Foxes fans’ favourite since his scoring run in 2021, and this backing has seen him pick up the club’s main gong.
He follows in the footsteps of James Maddison, Jamie Vardy and Ricardo Pereira, who won the award in the past four seasons.
His major moments last season came in February, when he scored twice and set up three more goals across the two wins against Aston Villa and Tottenham, while his heroics in the 1-1 draw with Leeds, playing the pass to set up Jamie Vardy’s equaliser despite tearing his groin.
